The past few days have been very trying as our country and province struggle to come to terms with the ongoing covid 19 pandemic. In order to assist clubs in the province and to help protect our members CCNL has enacted the following policy at an emergency executive meeting.
1.Clubs can remain open at their own discretion but are reminded and encouraged to follow federal and provincial guidelines. These guidelines are changing constantly – sometimes more than once in a day. They should be watched closely if any event is planned.
2.The main federal web page is:
Of special interest are the “Prevention and Risks” and “Guidance Documents” tabs.
3. The main provincial page is
https://www.health.gov.nl.ca/health/publichealth/cdc/coronavirus/
4. The NL cup series is cancelled in light of the advice in the above noted guidelines.
5. Local club events, including jack rabbits and social events are at the discretion of each club. Current guidelines discourage events which require or encourage travel between communities. Likewise indoor gatherings of large numbers of people must be considered in light of the above noted guideline.
It has been an excellent year so far. Stay safe and enjoy the great outdoors!
